Biosfera's lemongrass balm, a perfect ally for the skin.

The olive oil and lemongrass balm from Biosfera is a cosmetic product made with ingredients from the vicinity of the Arenal volcano. Thanks to its exclusive formula, it provides multiple benefits for the skin without the need for chemicals, improving the texture and appearance of the dermis in a respectful and safe way.

Biosfera, natural excellence

The lemongrass moisturizing balm is a product from Biosfera, a cosmetics brand founded in 2007 in La Fortuna, Costa Rica, on the slopes of the Arenal volcano. Born in a country that boasts 4% of the world's biodiversity, the project aims to create self-care products that are effective and produced in harmony with nature, ensuring a quality, highly biocompatible cosmetic treatment.

To do this, they cultivate their own ingredients around their laboratory, extract water from pure springs nearby, collect all kinds of raw materials from the Costa Rican surroundings and craft their products by hand. The result is noticeable from the first application: their balms, creams and exfoliators nourish the skin, enrich the complexion, promote body relaxation and generate a deep, lasting sense of well-being.

Active Ingredients

The balm combines several active components extracted directly from nature to guarantee high efficiency and biocompatibility. Among its ingredients are:

  • Extra virgin olive oil: with a high degree of oleic acid, olive oil provides deep hydration and nutrition for the skin, relieving dermal dryness and helping to restore its natural protective barrier. In addition, it has a high content of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps fight free radicals and prevent premature aging of the skin, restoring its elasticity and preventing the appearance of expression lines.
  • Shea butter: rich in several fatty acids, it aids in the cellular repair of dry or damaged skin. In addition, it has anti-inflammatory properties and provides a high degree of vitamins A and E, which, like olive oil, fight free radicals and promote skin elasticity.
  • Centella asiatica extract: this compound rich in triterpenic saponins acts as a catalyst for collagen synthesis by stimulating the skin's fibroblasts, significantly reduces skin inflammation, contributes to the regeneration of the dermis, and provides additional antioxidant protection.
  • Lemongrass essential oil: also known as lemongrass or lemon grass essential oil, this compound has been widely used in alternative medicine for its purifying, antibacterial and toning properties. When applied to the skin, it releases a pleasant citrus scent while reducing skin fat and keeping the area clean.



How to apply it

The Biosfera lemongrass moisturizing balm is a powerful ally in all kinds of massages and dermocosmetic treatments. We recommend applying directly to the skin and spreading it with a light massage until you feel that the product has been reactivated. It is not necessary to use large amounts of product; thanks to its exclusive slow absorption formula, it is able to cover a large area with a small volume.

Massage rituals

To enhance its therapeutic power, we recommend combining the product with other Biosfera cosmetics. In our catalog, you will find several pre-designed massage ritual packs to inspire you when creating relaxing treatments. These cosmetic kits have been carefully conceived and developed to ensure a luxurious, lasting and unique relaxing massage experience.

Earth Vitality Ritual

The Biosfera lemongrass balm is included in our Earth Vitality ritual pack. This relaxing massage kit also includes:

  • 1 bottle of 255 grams of premium coffee body scrub: made with high-quality arabica coffee, it provides a deep cleansing while soothing the skin and improving circulation.
  • 1 pack of 500 grams of white clay powder mask: accredited by the COSMOS ECOCERT certification, this mask cleanses the skin, soothes skin irritation and targets imperfections.
  • 1 small octagonal tray, three gold spoons and three glass jars: ideal for facilitating the administration of the product and ensuring a luxurious experience for the customer.
The ritual has an estimated duration of 110 minutes and focuses on renewing energy, softening the skin, nourishing the complexion and producing a unique sensory harmony sensation in the client. The first step is to exfoliate the area, toning, stimulating circulation and restoring luminosity to the skin. After this, the area is wrapped in white clay, which balances, cleanses, detoxifies and adds more shine to the complexion. Finally, the moisturizing balm is applied, an ideal finish that ensures optimal hydration of the dermis and an unmatched relaxing fresh sensation.


Deep Sensory Oasis Ritual

Another ritual that may include the olive oil and lemongrass balm is the Deep Sensory Oasis. This has an approximate duration of 110 minutes and aims to relax the muscles, deeply hydrate the skin, balance body energy and provide the client with a prolonged sense of well-being. In the cosmetic pack, in addition to the balm, are included:

  • 1 bottle of 255 grams of volcanic lava and aloe vera body scrub: combined with green tea extract, it removes skin impurities and deeply nourishes it.
  • 1 bag of 500 grams of white clay powder mask: made with products from the Costa Rican lands, it soothes irritated skin while combating skin imperfections.
  • 1 can of 100 grams of Pura Vida luxury relaxing balm: formulated with mint, eucalyptus and hot pepper, it minimizes skin redness and eliminates the sensation of localized muscle pain.
  • 2 octagonal trays, 4 gold spoons and 4 glass jars with cork lid: perfect for supplying the product in a luxurious and visually attractive way.
The ritual begins by eliminating skin impurities with the Biosfera volcanic lava scrub. After this, the white clay is applied to cleanse and detoxify the skin and the balm (in this case lemongrass) is used to soothe and hydrate the skin after the cleaning. Finally, the Pura Vida balm is used to massage the foot area in a reflexology treatment that aims to harmonize internal systems and provide a deep sense of well-being.
